In the true sense the Europeans were the harbinger in this field. Assam by far the foremost region in tea production was closely followed by Bengal whose tea producing areas included the hill areas and the plains of the Terai in Darjeeling district, the Dooars in Jalpaiguri district and Chittagong.

    KURSEONG MUNICIPALITY Annual Administrative Report on the working of the Kurseong Municipality, for the year 2008-2009 1. INTRODUCTION: 1.1 Darjeeling District has four Sub-Division namely Darjeeling, Kurseong, Kalimpong and Siliguri. Three Sub-Division are located in hill region and are is in plan. Kurseong is one of the hill Sub-Division with longitude and latitude as 880 17m East and 260 53m North respectively. 1.2 Historical perspective - In the year 1835 Darjeeling was selected and acquired by the then British India Govt. for the purpose of establishing health sanatorium and summer residence for their officers and the soldiers. The first road to Darjeeling via Kurseong was constructed from Titalya, which is also known as Military Road, as it was also meant for the Military purposes. But it has remained unplayable for the last five or six decades due to non maintenance and on constructing one more road, Hill Cart Road now known as Tenzing Norgay Road, connecting the plains of Bengal with Darjeeling via hilly sub-stations viz. Tindharia, Kurseong, Sonada and Ghoom. As far as the history goes, Darjeeling area including Kurseong was a part of Sikkim and it was in the year 1835 leased to the British India Govt. by the then Rajan of Sikkim on yearly remuneration. The original inhabitants of Kurseong and Darjeeling were the Lepchas and the word ‘Kharsang’ now known as Kurseong comes from the Lepcha word, meaning ‘The land of White Orchids’: botanically known as Ceologeny, which grows abundantly in the trees and rock crevasses here. 1.3 Background of Kurseong Municipality – Kurseong Municipality was established in the year 1879.

LIST OF SAR EQUIPMENTS.............................................................. Pg. 91 - 92 1 INTRODUCTION Nature offers every thing to man. It sustains his life. Man enjoys the beauties of nature and lives on them. But he also becomes a victim of the fury of nature. Natural calamities like famines and floods take a heavy toll of human life and property. Man seems to have little chance in fighting against natural forces. The topography of the district of Darjeeling is such that among the four sub-divisions, three sub-divisions are located in the hills where disasters like landslides, landslip, road blockade are often occurred during monsoon. On the other side, in the Siliguri Sub-Division which lies in the plain there is possibility of flood due to soil erosion/ embankment and flash flood. As district of Darjeeling falls under Seismic Zone IV the probability of earthquake cannot be denied. Flood/ cyclone/ landslide often trouble men. Heavy rains results in rivers and banks overflowing causing damage on a large scale. Unrelenting rains cause human loss. In a hilly region like Darjeeling district poor people do not have well constructed houses especially in rural areas. Because of incessant rains houses collapse and kill people. Rivers and streams overflow inundating large areas. Roads and footpaths are sub merged under water.

    AUSTIN MANINDRA NATH GHOSH AUSTINMANINDRA NATH GHOSH was born in a renowned Christian family of Calcutta on the 14th June, 1902. His father, Manmatha Nath Ghosh, was a member of the Senior Bengal Civil Service. Austin Ghosh was educated in the Mission and Hare School in Calcutta, and scored a very high rank in the Intermediate Examination in Science at the University of Calcutta. He graduated with Honours in Geology from the Presidency College, Calcutta, in the year 1924. During his college career, Ghosh was a regular member of the football and hockey teams, and had also joined the 2nd Battalion of the Calcutta University Training Corps. Soon after his graduation, he joined the Geological Survey of India, and in 1928 went to the United Kingdom on study leave, where he qualified first as an Associate of the Royal College of Science, and then completed the B.Sc. Honours Examination of the University of London in the First Class. Ghosh later acquainted himself with the various mineralogical and palaeontological museums located in France, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland and Holland. Career in the Geological Survey of India During the twenties, it was not easy for an Indian to get recruited as an officer in the Geological Survey of India. So at the age of 22, Ghosh joined the Geological Survey of India as a Museum Assistant and was confirmed in the year 1925 in the same post. In attempting to better his service conditions he appeared at the Bengal Civil Service Examination in 1926, and qualified in the Junior Civil Service cadre and was posted to Chittagong.
